THE VFA PIONEER HISTORIES PROJECT

Iris Wolfson

“Women need to understand that they should trust themselves. No one knows better than us what we need, and who we are, and what comes from within.”

Iris has maintained a practice in holistic women’s healthcare since 1981. Her care is guided by a strong intuitive sense and a deep spiritual awareness. She is certified as both a nurse midwife and nurse-practitioner, having completed undergraduate work at Albert Einstein Medical Center and Temple University, and graduate studies at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of Newark, New Jersey.
